John Murray is on page 100 of 752 of Jerusalem: The Biography
Monumental piece of work! From Melchizedek to now. Its coverage and depth are breathtaking. I learned more about the "middle east" from this one book than all the others put together. Highly recommended. Might add a hard back copy to my library for reference.

Jerusalem: The Biography

John Murray
John Murray is finished with The Ark of the Covenant in Its Egyptian Context: An Illustrated Journey
Excellent book provides a linkage between the Exodus and its Egyptian roots in a very practical and concrete manner. I think it would be difficult to argue against Falk. Enjoyed it a great deal. Anyone serious about Biblical archaeology should read this.

John Murray is starting The Ark of the Covenant in Its Egyptian Context: An Illustrated Journey
Reading this because it was recommended by Carmen Imes (an OT biblical scholar specializing in Exodus).

Reading other things while reading this. It is a heavy academic work not in my field hence the time taken to read it.

Enjoying de Silva's style - academic but not too involved and evidence for a traditional view of authorship of NT letters.
